Why waste so much time learning php, when a framework takes all the pain out of it.

i'll tell you right now as a hiring manager, old school PHP devs are discarded because they cant learn modern 'php'
I would agree with that statement only if the following are true:

1) His end goal is to work as an "employee" in some 9-5 rat race job making someone else rich and keeping up with other employees to make the corporate boss happy.
2) He has no interest in learning the basic building blocks of the language. (Like if you want to learn how to work on car engines to build your own hotrod, fuck it just buy a Tesla and buy the dealer upgrades instead)

Then that's just learning the framework not the language.

If that's the case, then one could easily say why learn a framework when Wordpress, Joomla, or Drupal takes the pain out of it.
